    Sometimes a Great Notion - Ken Kesey

    I started this but didn't finish it. It's not an easy read. I still wanna finish it at some point though.
    I finished the other and I am only reading this now. Took a little while to follow but once I was in a ways things became clearer. Probably helps that I live in the area the book is set.

    just finished The Art of Racing in the Rain by Garth Stein.

    It was pretty depressing throughout but when I finished it, it was satisfying. :mrgreen:

    I LOVED that book! Definitely something different.

    An additional note: I'm a sucker for depressing stuff, haha.

    Mother Tongue by Bill Bryson - about the history and variations on the English language (and language in general).

    And a Horror anthology that starts with H.P. Lovecraft's essay about "weirdly horrible" literature, and filled with the likes of Ambrose Bierce, Robert Louis Stevenson, Edgar Allen Poe, Rudyard Kipling and even Charles Dickens..
